Exhibiton: Flow: Currents of Change in Our River Landscape, Relate North (12) symposium: New Genre Arctic Art Education at The University of Lapland 4 -7. Nov, 2024

This sweater challenges our perception of green energy, questioning whether it truly lives up to its name. Inspired by a visit to Vuotso, where a dam disrupted the natural ecosystem, it highlights the unintended consequences of human intervention: blocked fish migration, lost livelihoods, and displaced communities. The sweater is knitted using Hönsestrikk, a free-form knitting style that emerged in 1970s Denmark, characterised by vibrant borders and infused with personal and political messages. The message is simple but urgent: if we overuse resources and energy, the world faces irreversible damage.
